Macha Ravel is a singer-songwriter born in Zagreb and raised in France, who began as a rapper under the name Muha and now makes alt-pop, synth-pop and R&B in Croatian and French.

Background

In a June 2025 interview with the Serbian newspaper Danas, she said she was born in Zagreb, grew up in France and began writing as an artist at 22, when she started making rap. She released her first EP under the name Muha, and has since moved into pop while experimenting across genres. She describes writing songs in response to her own life experiences and cites Hole’s “Doll Parts” as a song that shaped her outlook. Producer Endži Dolores is a long-time collaborator.

According to Apple Music’s catalogue, she released the EP Identitet in April 2021 and the album INTENZITET (11 tracks) in May 2023. Singles include “Traume” (April 2024), “Ne Voli Me” (September 2024) and “Ako Smo Isti” (March 2025). “LUTKICA”, sung in Croatian and French, came out in June 2025 and was reissued as a 13-track deluxe edition in August 2025, followed by “Pasegoni” in October 2025. In the Danas interview she said a second studio album was planned for spring 2026.
